    So I have a budget of €300 and am looking for a new phone. Looking for it to have at least 16gb of built in storage, good performance all around and a good screen. The quality of the camera doesn't matter much and a removable battery isn't necessary either. Is the OnePlus One my best option?

    Prime ultra for €170 is currently the best value for money phone. Might not be in stock for a week or two.

    This also seems like a very good option. Already with Vodafone as well. Do you own one?

    Yep very good phone so far maybe slightly on the big side but I've gotten used to it. I've unlocked mine for the 48 network. Check your local store.

    Thanks. The size doesn't really bother me. Is the battery good?

    Battery on this is better than on the recently released htc one, Galaxy s6 and Lg g4.

    I'd love to get one of these, just been checking out the specs there, looks great.

    Has a release date been confirmed for Ireland or would it be a case of buying it via a UK supplier do you know?

    Thanks.
